Happy Birthday to Elise_Wanderer!

Elise, dear, may your birthday bring you your hearts desires, including, but not limited to Severus Snape, a fully funded independent theater, and starring roles in next summer's biggest blockbuster (to pay the rent) and the next Palm d'Or (to keep your street cred). Failing that, may your birthday bring you a steady supply of materials to continue your critical research into the Physiochemical Reaction of the Female Human Physiognomy Under Intensive Amount of Chocolate, Cholesterol, and Champagne. (As I side note, perhaps your consortium should apply for stimulus funding).

If you deliver me a prompt, I shall deliver you a story.

P.S. I had on ideare waiting in the wings that would have served you well, but decided that might be cheating. Prompt away!
